Started about a week and a half ago, creaking/scraping sound as wheel turns, like something is scraping wheel or wheel is scraping something under car as the wheel turns. So you hear the noise when it hits a certain point, so it's not continuous.Noise has started getting worse and It's louder when car is first started and cold, can't really hear it after car warms up. I think it might be a wheel bearing issue and it's booked into garage for Friday but I just want to know, what it might be and is it safe to drive? Don't want my wheel falling off

bearings, if the noise is on full lock possibly outer cv joint

bearing is usually safe to drive on for a bit, mine locked up on the motorway though so take it easy
